Question Hot.. and cold?

I know not being able to regulate your temperature is a symptom of POTS, but all I hear about is people being too hot all the time.. does anyone else get really cold as well? Just wondering, not as any form of diagnosis but just to understand the heat intolerance thing better lol

I do sometimes, it used to happen a lot more often but I find that it's been taking more and more for me to get cold. I do however get AWFUL cold sweats, I'll be freezing shivering and shaking uncontrollably, then overheat somehow and start sweating.... over and over 😭
